Clint EdwardsMar 25, 2012I always wondered why they didn't just do like they do with locomotives, a diesel engine running a generator powering the wheels. You could even use the re-gen braking like a Jake Brake.

Andrew GrimmMar 25, 2012If semi trucks could become hybrids, it would save a lot of diesel. Electric motors could easily produce enough towing torque required also. I know it isn't that simple for them to just go hybrid and in sure they have been trying for a while.

Micah BuffatMar 25, 2012Some things were meant to be hybrids some were not this was not

Justin TuckerMar 25, 2012Well I would like to know what kinda small turbo is holding that 1,500hp

Clint EdwardsMar 25, 2012Seeing as how it's making 1900hp I doubt it's starved for boost

Darren SmithMar 25, 2012It's all in the tune and right combo of parts, BIG is not always better or faster.!!

Justin TuckerMar 25, 2012I'm normally around supras and looking at the intake, it does not look big at all. For say a 1000hp single turbo supra the intake pipe and filter is massive. You might be right, it may look small compared to everything else but it doesnnt look quite that big

Devin BabynMar 25, 2012It's probably about a foot wide. My buddy showed me some of their old turbos and they were huge. Made this one look like it should be on a car

Buddy RobinsonMar 25, 2012Well it probably looks small compared to everything else in the picture
